Bangkok / Frankfurt / Ettlingen, December 10, 2013: A long-standing trademark dispute comes to a good end. At least this is true for the i3 Consult, an international consulting group for project, quality, and test management in the IT environment.
The well-known law firm Kapler (headquarters: Madrid, Spain), specializing in trademark, patent, and intelectual property, released an official opposition (opposition number B 001 817 561) against the wordmark „i3 Consult“ (trademark number 009 583 485) in 2012.
Kapler outlined the potentials of confusion in terms of several trademarks holding by their clients herein. Pedro Diéguez Garbayo (attorney at Kapler) explained the respective reasons in his 12-page opposition document.
However, the European Trademark Office (OAMI – Office for Harmonisation in the International Market) could not agree with any of his positions. Thus i3 Consult is entitled to use the mentioned trademark within the EU.
The trademark i3 Consult is fully protected in the relevant classes: Now, the wordmark i3 Consult stands for consulting services in software development, SAP consulting, software testing and IT service management.
Concerning the Kappler opposition, insiders appeared irritated: the odds of success were low. The reasons given by Kapler designated some experts even as incomprehensible. Therefore, many of these trademark specialists are wondering why Kapler decided to run this unnecessary opposition against i3 Consult.
